When one group controls an industry or market by being the only provider, this is called MONOPOLY.
Mono - Greek monos means one or single
Poly - Greek polein means to sell.
Monopoly is a market where only one sells a certain good or service. In this type of market there is no competition thus the monopolist is not driven to improve his commodity because consumers have no other choice but to buy his product.
Answer:
$15 trillions
Explanation:
The computation of the GDP is shown below:
GDP = Consumption + Investment + Government purchase + Net exports
where,
Consumption = $10 trillions
Investment = $2.5 trillions
Government purchase = $3 trillions
Net exports = Exports - imports
= $1 trillion - $1.5 trillion
= -$0.5 trillion
So, the GDP would be
= $10 trillions + $2.5 trillions + $3 trillions - $0.5 trillions
= $15 trillions
= 13.5 trillions

If the government sets out to make home buying easier for more people by forcing lenders to accept LOWER down payments and LOWER interest rates, the result will likely be an INCREASE in housing prices
Explanation:
If either interest rates or down payment amounts lower, the quantity demanded for houses will increase a little, possible leading to a small increase in the prices of houses.
If both interest rates and down payment amounts lower, then the quantity demanded for houses should increase a lot, which will result in an increase in the prices of houses.
This happened during the first decade of our century and everything was fine until the interest rates started to increase and people could no longer pay their mortgages and BOOM, the economy busted.
